SOUTHEND Airport has launched a new recruitment drive, with several roles now up for grabs.
The airport’s owner, Esken, is advertising a number of jobs on its website as it looks to move forward again following the coronavirus pandemic.
The aviation industry has recently been boosted by the relaxation of travel and testing restrictions and is hopeful of staging a recovery after a difficult few years.
Southend Airport is on somewhat of a high following the news easyJet will be returning this summer and offering regular flights to Mallorca and Malaga.

They said on Facebook: “London Southend Airport is an exciting, fast paced employer.
“If you want to be part of a team committed to delivering excellent customer service, then we want to meet you!
Permanent, full time and part time careers are available across a range of roles including Air Traffic Control, Surface Access, Security, Finance, Executive Jet Centre and Technical Services.”
